Abstract

The transmitters discussed in Chap. 5 have proven that high-data-rate wireless communication systems can be designed in a standard CMOS technology. However, due to the lack of proper mm-wave interfacing blocks and on-chip carrier generation, these chips could only operate in a laboratory environment. Also, only the design of the transmitter was considered, without careful analysis of the transmission channel and the receiver.
